ANDERSON Lester Pearson & Marvin Larsen, Spencer State Bank Auctioneers Clerk ■l"'« ■■ ' " ''I Consumers 1’iililic Power District CURRENT NEWS Building for Tomorrow’s Electrical Progress Today Plant Start, Other Events Forecast a Bright Future An eventful 1958 forecast much of future significance for all Nebraskans in general and customers of Consumers Public Power District in particular. The brightest promise for the future was revealed as ground was broken for the District’s nuclear power plant on a 640 acre site near Hallam. Major grading and land level ing at the site were completed during the fall of 1958, with first construction activity scheduled for the spring of 1959. I he plant will go into operation on a conventional steam power basis ia the spring of 1961, and on a nuclear basis in 1962. Completion of the plant will make available to Nebraskans another 100,000 K*l° watts of electrical energy. Meanwhile, research is being pressed into the possible uses of radioactive wastes from the plant in industry and agriculture. Such uses are expected to open the door to wonderful opportunities for a vast expansion of Nebras- j lea’s economy. Amendment Assures Continued Payments Approval of a constitutional amendment in the 1958 general election assures Consumers Public Power District’s continued and increased payments in lieu of taxes to school districts, muni- j cipalities, counties and the state. The amendment provides for | payments up to 5Vo of the Dis trict’s gross retail electric rev enues in cities and villages This is a perspective of the Sheldon Sta tion and Hallam Nuclear Power Facility, looking northeast.
